Shunfeng International Clean Energy has selected Haibo Xiong as Wuxi Suntech’s new president, after Eric Luo had led the company and was recently appointed CEO of Shunfeng.

Haibo (Victor) Xiong had been at Wuxi Suntech for 10 years, joining in February 2005 as the manager of Product Development Department, rising to general manager of Wuxi Suntech in 2012 and responsible for cell and module operations at plants in Shanghai and Luoyang.

"Mr. Xiong has shown strong leadership in his roles at Suntech and I think his management expertise will be a great asset as we look to grow our company," said Eric Luo, CEO of Shunfeng International Clean Energy. “With Mr. Xiong's leadership, we believe that the company will help drive our vision of becoming the largest integrated clean energy provider globally."

"It is a great honor to lead such a critical part of the Shunfeng group. Suntech ended 2014 with the strongest financial footing in the solar industry and passed the 8GW mark, shipping more than 30 million modules to date worldwide,” said Xiong.

Prior to joining in Suntech, Xiong was responsible for quality management of Wuxi Nemic-Lambda Electronics Co., Ltd.
